I live in Oregon, and have a heck of a time finding EU Star Wars fans- I've made a few myself, but none have the passion for the EU that I do.

I was curious do others have this issue?

If so I was thinking drop states you live and what not- if someone has the same state PM and see about hanging out- I know most of you EUCers already know everyone else, but I'm in a constant search to find an Uber-Geek living close that I can kick it with._________________-Bring on your thousands, one at a time or all in a rush.

I live in Florida, and know one other EUCer who does too. Never thought about meeting with them though; maybe when CV comes we can organize an EUC member lunch? The members of the Star Wars blogs did it for CIV.

I live in Louisiana myself, rather far from Oregon. But I would love to meet the other EUC members. I'm not sure when we could ever manage that, but it'd be fun. _________________"It's not about the legacy you leave, it's about the life you live." ~Mara Jade Skywalker

Most obvious place would be CV, depending on location. Or perhaps Star Wars weekends at Disney, but again, that depends on everyones location and distance to Disney. We are very spread out. The EUCast hosts come from all four corners of the U.S.

We are very spread out, and I think that's fun. But it's hard to get together, yes. Maybe we'll just have to do it bits at a time? OMB meets Autobon, Mara Jade meets Sword. Sword meets Joe, OMB meets Skuldren. Aush meets Salaris, Mara Jade meets Autobon. OMB meets Sword, Skuldren meets Salaris. And so on. You know...one at a time! That would be just as hard as everybody all at once, though. _________________"It's not about the legacy you leave, it's about the life you live." ~Mara Jade Skywalker

Well, Autobon has already told me we will never meet, so your entire cycle just got ruined.

Autobon, Autobon. Why must he always be so difficult? I need to have a talk with that boy..._________________"It's not about the legacy you leave, it's about the life you live." ~Mara Jade Skywalker

It's hard to find people with such passion for EU where we live, I mean don't get me wrong plenty of fans, but no EU type fans. It would rock to meet some more people into the EU, I've met a few 501st members from a neighboring city, my son has had a 501st presence at his last 4 birthdays he's 5.

My son loves it, but is still to young to get into the books. But he can school me at Battlefront now- he went from SW Legos to the battlefronts and loves it.

See in Oregon I live at the end with fewer people per square mile. I always "geek out" on my friends, some enjoy it, others I can tell humor me cause they love me I wonder what state has the highest % of Uber Geeks like myself?_________________-Bring on your thousands, one at a time or all in a rush.

Well looks like we've got a variety. Maybe a prize for the EUCer who gets a Uber Geek local to join up _________________-Bring on your thousands, one at a time or all in a rush. I don't give a damn. None shall pass.

For Canadians how difficult is it to find other Uber Geeks?_________________-Bring on your thousands, one at a time or all in a rush. I don't give a damn. None shall pass.

My best friend just moved there and has been trying to get me and my wife to follow- which we've admitted we may someday.
